I know it is her first semester, but wow. She is utterly awful. She never even gets close to covering all the material on the homework and exams. Her tests are extremely hard. Unreasonably hard. I know you hated Deppe for intermediate 1, but if he teaches this class, take it from him. I know its hard to believe but hes actually way better than her.

Hopkins was great for her first semester. The class was pretty easy as long as you do the homework (which is done online and you get help with guided examples) and learn what the terms mean. She is very willing to help if you have any questions. If you don't understand the homework, she goes over it the next class. She gets the approval

Professor Hopkins is new to teaching, and is becoming an excellent addition to the staff at Weber State. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject, and does a good job filtering what's important and what's not. Bottom line is students need to read the text prior to coming to class, and then will be successful in the course.

She is very organized in her schedules and it made it extremely easy for me to be a good student. She is a great instructor and knows her stuff. She works with you when you are confused and tries to make things easier to understand. Sometimes our thinking clashed and I had to tune her out, but she does a great job explaining/giving examples.

The good: she is very nice. She will sometimes bring treats. She encourages you to speak up if you don't understand something. The bad: she doesn't teach well. She goes over everything, but not in a way that makes it easy to learn if the material is new to you. The exams were way too hard. She was ok with most of the class getting a C.

This was a difficult class mainly due that it was only taught at night and there is tons of material to be learned in just a few weeks. The course will be better next semester because this was Lisa's first semester teaching which made it hard to learn her teaching ways but, by the end she has gotten a lot better in knowing what works.

ACTG 3110 with Lisa was fantastic. She is alway readily available to help any student that is struggling. Although this class was difficult, it is entirely manageable. Take the ALEKS assessment serious as it is fundamental to have a good understanding of the concepts from the intro class. Show up to class and participate wholeheartedly to succeed.

Lisa cares about her students a ton. She is willing to meet and get you on track to succeed. The in-class work is super helpful. There is a lot of homework which I do not mind if it is helpful. Some of it felt like busy work that took away time I could have spend studying in ways that help me. Other than that, solid option!

One of the best accounting professors I have had. She gives lecture handouts before her classes to keep students engaged, and they are super helpful for the homework and the exams. Attendance is important, but her classes are so good you'll look forward to going. Strongly recommend Professor Hopkins

Professor Hopkins is amazing. She is so kind and funny, I highly recommend taking a virtual or in person class with her. She goes over everything in lecture, so take really good notes, she gives lots of tips for exams. She is always willing to work with her students to help them succeed. I just adored her this semester.

Lisa is the best teacher I have ever had. I had the pleasure of being in two different classes she teaches and came out confident in my knowledge of the content. Highly recommend taking her classes if you have the chance. She is very understanding of when things come up and works well is students who are also working full time.

Favorite and most caring professor I've had! I missed class so frequently due to chronic illnesses, and was in Lisa's office hours every week to go over missed lectures. It is a tough class, and if you have frequent absences you will struggle. But, she gives you great resources to succeed, you just have to apply yourself. Definitely take her class!

Lisa is very laid back and funny and most importantly an amazing accounting teacher. Passing her class means you really understand what you are doing. Attendance isn't mandatory, but I'd recommend showing up every day, otherwise you'll miss important things for homework and exams that you'll struggle to catch up on yourself. She grades very fairly.

Lisa Hopkins is by far the best teacher I have had all of my college career. She is extremely caring. This class is a 3000 level class which means it will be a bit hard but she does everything she can to help you learn. I would recommend her to anyone. One thing you MUST do is ask for help. She wants to help and cant read your mind so ask for help.

This class has TONS of homework, quizzes and exams. I am actually surprised by the 5 star ratings. Do not take this class with other heavy classes. Lisa is tough. She thinks doing well on an exam is a C so be sure to set your expectations. The exams are extremely hard and mostly do not match up with homework or quizzes given.

Lisa is the best professor I've ever had! She inspired me to change my major. This class is not bad at all. Exams are fine if you study. The best thing you can do is show up to lecture and keep the handouts to review. She actually cares about her students and will answer any questions/review any tests with you. Couldn't recommend her enough :)

Awesome teacher! Very caring and wants you to succeed. This is a harder course, and Lisa always did a great job in the lectures. Use lecture handouts, homework, and student group assignments as study resources. Also a good idea to read through the textbook. I would recommend her to anyone looking to take the class.

Took her for ACCT 3110 and 2020 and she is easily one of the best professors I've had at Weber State. She genuinely cares about her students' success and gives some of the highest-quality accounting lectures I've experienced.

Professor is an amazing and clear explainer. Group work/homework was more helpful than lectures, making weekly attendance de facto mandatory. Exams were stressful and unpredictable (not matching homework/materials), requiring deep conceptual understanding. Four exams (two counting as finals) felt excessive. Great Professor and class overall.

She doesn't do extra credit, or lets you turn in anything late, exams being difficult because it's completely different from the lectures and homework, and will usually tell you to go to “tutoring” (which are great). All I can say is go to lectures and tutoring, do not get sick, and lock in. She is a nice person, but is strict with her syllabus.
